Disabled people are the ones that need most help with living. How would you like to be stuck in a wheelchair and have your bread taken away and be told go to work even if working is impossible in such a situation? Stop attacking the vulnerable and stop taking away that little that is already so little and barely enough as it is.

Sarah supported: Prevent the Government’s plans to end PIP Payments and from changing the PIP AssessmentI am appalled that the government have targeted already marginalised groups before the super rich and it is also a blow to Labour's reputation as the party of the working class. This also raises concerns about the perception of disabled people by general society. Therefore, I would like to suggest writing the UN Convention on the Rights of Disabled Persons, of which the UK is a signatory, into UK law which includes the obligation to combat prejudices and stereotypes and to raise awareness of the capabilities and contributions of disabled people.
Shaun supported: Halt Further Limitations on Disability Benefits by LabourWhat this labour government are doing to disabled people is disgusting, they don't want to be disabled by choice, it's a real struggle every day, I have fibromyalgia, restless leg syndrome, ibs, my shoulders don't work, my neck is in pain all the time, as well as my shoulders, my bladder is weak, I need the toilet all the time, I have dislexia which makes my trip and fall all the time, I feel dizzy and lightheaded, I have migraines, I have dislexia, I have trouble with my feet, shooting pains and numbness, in my feet and hands, I take alot of medication that makes me really tired, and most of the time I feel like staying in bed because of the pain, I have PTSD because I saw my mum in hospital over a month go through so many things, that the last thing that I saw before she died haunts me and I can't unsee it, I have been left traumatised, , and I suffer with anxiety and depression because of that reason, cutting peoples benefits and disability is really cruel, and I think it will lead to alot of vulnerable people taking their own lives, because they will feel their is no other way they can live.
